I could imagine Neko doing this, but Kunoichi would have about as much luck as I would in attaining that height. (Also … coolness on the body dynamics and twisting.)
On a related note, have you seen Servals jump? They're Savannah cats that hunt in tall grass to flush birds and catch them out of the air. Not the best video, but an example: http://youtu.be/cj-LI97SYLI
I owned a small consulting firm long, long ago, named Serval Systems, because I think they are such awesome critters. I'd be sorely tempted to have one, but our current cats give us enough trouble without adding a super-athlete to the mix.
Pish posh.
Nala has that cat way beat. Giant leaps and the 4 jazz hands attack.
Look at the tail being used to stabilize and alter the rotation. Amazing.
Yes, I'd be scared for that microwave in the background were Kunoichi to attempt it. 😉
Very cool gif, though.
